On January 15, 2019, I called on Premier Moe to place an immediate moratorium on any further contracts between SaskTel and Huawei, and today, we are glad to see that he has taken our advice.
However, the potential threat to the security and privacy of Saskatchewan people and businesses remains of very real concern.

New Democrat members have flagged Huawei as a potential concern since 2010. The Sask Party failed to exercise due diligence and take those concerns seriously. Now that they are finally paying attention, we need to see a thorough and transparent plan to reduce our financial exposure, protect SaskTel and the privacy and security of Saskatchewan people and businesses.
